Bug Report BSOD While Streaming

Hello.

Been using OBS to stream for a little over a month now with mostly great success. However, on two occasions now my PC has crashed/BSOD during the stream. I'll get into more details in a moment, but I do want to preface with two important tidbits.

1) About 2 years ago my PC did undergo some heating issues that required a new cooling system be put into place. Since then, there have been no issues involving heating/overheating etc.

2) I have had no issues of any kind since then save for the two BSOD crashes which happened mid-stream. Hence, why it has brought me back to the only major change since point 1.

I stream once a week and the game is not a complicated one. I stream Shining Force (played on PC) using the Fusion emulator (v3.4). There are a number of other applications up while streaming (Wsplit, Twitch Chat, Notepad, and Excel) but the PID is low which leads me to believe it's not in the other applications. I have successfully streamed through the game (7+ hours) about four times, two other times it crashed at about the 3.5 hour mark.

I'm unsure of what the problem may be, it could be PC-related but as it only happens during streaming, that's why I'm coming here first. Does anyone else have any similar issues BSOD-ing while streaming? Any thoughts as to why this may happen (and happen rather "randomly") as well?

Please help, thank you
